01-02-2025 LOGAN-CACHE AIRPORT AUTHORITY BOARD MEETING

The Logan-Cache Airport Authority Board meeting held on January 2, 2025, focused extensively on airport management, land use, and lease agreements. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of purchase orders for equipment such as a debris pickup vehicle, a pressure washer for runway lights, and a PAPY digital aiming device kit to maintain and improve airport infrastructure. The board also reviewed bids from four contractors for runway repair work and discussed the formation of a committee to explore a proposal from an investor interested in developing large hangars and widening the runway at the airport. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to revising land lease agreements, debating fair lease rates, and how to charge for hanger footprints and surrounding land, with a proposal to increase rates to 43 cents per square foot to align with state averages. The board agreed to further refine the lease terms and make them available for public review before taking action. Additionally, the board discussed hosting an airport open house event in June 2025 and the need for ongoing financial transparency, including a future budget review presentation. The meeting concluded with a closed session to discuss real estate matters and plans to update and publish leaseholder information online.
